NOTE: The opening few minutes of this program are missing.

A real highlight of this show is when Groucho sings "I Love a Piano", accompanying himself on the guitar (@ 14:37). Groucho rarely displayed his guitar playing prowess in public (in contrast to Chico and Harpo's frequent musical specialties), but he was quite an accomplished musician in his own right!
